While attending the Chanel Haute Couture spring/summer 2026 runway show for Paris Fashion Week on Tuesday, Jan. 27, Dua Lipa looked the picture of high fashion. The “Don’t Start Now” singer opted for look number 14 from the Métiers d’Art Spring 2026 collection designed by Matthieu Blazy, consisting of a ladylike blazer and skirt set in an unexpected color combo and print.

The yellow, red and black patterned set draws from an animal print motif and features a unique red hem on the knee-length skirt and blazer sleeves. Lipa, who carried a matching purse in the same pattern, paired the look with black and white pumps and parted her chestnut locks off to the side.

Tuesday’s A-lister packed runway show also brought out famous faces like Nicole Kidman, Margaret Qualley, Gracie Abrams, Penélope Cruz and Claire Foy.

Lipa’s history with Chanel

This is far from the first occasion in which Lipa has worked with the French fashion house. Last January, Lipa was announced as the face of the Chanel 25 handbag campaign alongside fellow musician Jennie. “For me, the story of this campaign is a lot about the freedom of self-expression,” Lipa said at the time of partnering with the luxury brand. “For me, as an artist, that’s something that’s really important, that allows me to just be myself and be in the moment.”

Just a few days ago, Lipa posted a photo carousel for her 88.7 million Instagram followers that showcased her carrying a black Chanel bag over one arm. She paired the small designer purse with a basic white tee, cut-off shorts, a cropped red military jacket featuring silver hardware and mustard-colored cuffs, and brown riding boots.

And who could forget Lipa’s custom Chanel look for the 2025 Met Gala? Her showstopping ensemble featured a sequined black dress adorned with feathers, which was paired with sheer over-the-elbow gloves.

“... to my incredible @chanelofficial family, thank you for pouring so much love, artistry, and dedication into every detail of this look,” she wrote on Instagram at the time. “I’m endlessly grateful. I keep having to pinch myself… these moments are more than I ever dreamed. Creating with you is pure magic. I love, love, love it...and you🌹.”

Lipa’s presence at Chanel’s Paris Fashion Week show is just one more instance of her partnership with the brand, and we can’t wait to see how the artist and fashion house plan to collaborate next.
